Hello all,
I have just bought an 2003 MGTF 135 with 63000 on it, I'm quite pleased with the car it drives very well and is in nice condition. when I get my phone working I'll post a few pictures. I would like some advice on how to look after the car and who can do any mechanical work that might be needed. I live in Swansea but I have no problem traveling to a good specialist. Regards, Mark

Hi mark welcome to the group. Looking forward to seeing some photos. Do you have Facebook as we have a Facebook page which is used more than this forum now although I do to monitor it as often as I can. If you have Facebook look for our page under southwalesmg and one of the admins will except you. We have monthly pub meets which are on the second Monday of every month at the unicorn inn Cardiff gate. I will post details on forum if I haven't already where you get all the info you require straight from the horses mouth. We have a member who also lives in Swansea and he is a mechanic by trade so he would be a good contact for you. A lot of the group use a specialist mobile mg mechanic Jon Norris of rough luck racing who travels to Wales on regular bases. We have the next pub meet on Monday 11th sept. Rob mgf register area rep

Hi Oz, Been very awkward this year with Cherie's shifts and my new job. Plus repairs to both cars - TF needed a clutch , an alternator & then several bushes and joints to get through MOT. It's in daily use now with Cherie , so a fair bit of wear & tear! ZT also needed a new clutch and to cap it all , yesterday the Turbo blew on my way to Merthyr. Need to find someone to carry out this repair at a reasonable cost. The joys of owning older cars!
Did not sort my avatar originally , I think it was Jan when the forum had it's latest format.
